Taking Care Of Your Body

We often separate our spiritual lives from our physical lives, viewing them as two distinct categories. We tend to think of spirituality as prayer, reading scripture, and attending church, while viewing exercise, nutrition, and rest as purely secular concerns. However, the Bible paints a much more integrated picture. It teaches us that our physical bodies are not just temporary vessels to be used and discarded, but sacred temples where the Holy Spirit resides. This profound truth changes everything about how we should view our health. Taking care of ourselves is not just about vanity or longevity; it is a fundamental act of stewardship and worship.
